I played for the first time Monster Hunter World about two years ago with two friends, then we moved to Rise, and now I'm playing again World from scratch with some friends that have never played before. I completely agree with everything you said. For me at least getting a grasp on the game was tough in the beginning, I don't know if I would've carried on playing if I wasn't playing with friends. Now, after those tough first days, Monster Hunter has become one of my favorite franchises. Part of the mistake was on my stubbornness, as I was playing switch axe but it was not the weapon for me at that moment. I really started enjoying the game when I switched to dual blades. So for any newbie that may read this, changing weapons mid game is ok. There are fourteen weapons, just let's find the one that is for you. You will always have time to try it again later once you are more comfortable playing Monster Hunter. Regarding multiplayer I've read that in theory in Wilds we won't have again to wait for our friends to watch those cinematics so the experience should be smoother. Let's hope it's true.
Yes that's definitely true. Finding the right weapon for you can have a big impact on how the game feels as a lot of them play quite different to each other and there's nothing wrong with switching mid playthrough. I had a friend that was insistent on playing great sword but didn't like the slower speed drawback of the weapon. Once he switched over to something else he really enjoyed playing. Thanks so much for your comment, glad you enjoyed the video.
